You can happily plug a hub into the router - but remember to use a x-over cable or an up-link port of the hub. This will kind'a expand the number of ports on the router. Normally, you can continue like this until you have 250 odd machines connected. All will have access to the outside world - unless you can configure the router to disable them.
